   That approximately 30% of the American people believe this isn’t what is significant. What is significant is that the figure is growing. I have said many times that the times in which we live are reflective of the antebellum period leading up to the Civil War. Apparently, the left does not think that 600,000 dead is enough and wants a Civil War 2.0. Should it occur, I assure you that it will be nowhere near as civil as it was in 1861. The South was genteel then, but those days are long gone. Now we have attitude and we also have long memories. Couple that with guerilla tactics and you will have an insurrection from Hell and one not easily quelled.

     The problem with an insurrection, as I see it, William, is that it’ll likely come from groups with disparate aims, thus leaving Washington with no clear path to compromise or even surrender to a clear set of demands.
     And that is a recipe for complete destruction.

       Yes, fair comments there, KG – well said.

       If an insurrection *does* happen, it’ll be *one heck of a scrap*, that’s for sure.

   Thanks Thor.
   If it happens, it’ll be a messy, chaotic, bloody disaster.
   But if the alternative is to do nothing and gradually slide into some Orwellian future, I know which I’d prefer.

     @William Stout:

     As one who has been active in the revolutionary movement in America since 2005, I think the mainstream of patriot thinking is a return to the original U.S. Constitution of 1789 – NOTE: I didn’t say 1791 when the Bill of Rights were added as the first ten amendments.

     This would allow a period of Reconstruction lasting ten years after the revolution/civil war where the patriots could purge the nation of collectivism and the collectivists/parasites.

     This wouldn’t be new in American history – after the First American Revolution, the hardcore Tories who supported King George III were either imprisoned/hanged or forced to flee to Canada or England. In the aftermath of the U.S. Civil War former hardcore Confederates suffered the same fate – and thousands fled to Latin America and Europe.

     Yes, it is a pity, but civil wars/revolutions are as necessary to the healthy growth of nation as the odd forest fire is necessary to destroy the dead wood.

     BTW, speaking of the U.S. Civil War – in the early days of the conflict, it was pretty much a limited “Gentleman’s War” that didn’t even have as an objective the liberation of the slaves; however, as the war progressed it became a TOTAL WAR complete with the massacre of P.O.W.s, the world first modern concentration camps in which thousands died, the burning to the ground of rebel cities like Atlanta, Charleston and Richmond, the courts martial of civilians and their quick executions by the military without appeals, the imprisonment of newspaper editors/reporters without trial, etc.

     The U.S. Civil War period didn’t really end until 1876 when the Army of Occupation in the South finally marched home after a ten year purge of former rebels in the Old Confederacy and the elevation of freed slaves to high office in Dixie as Republicans.

     Of course, there was imposition of Jim Crow segregation in the late 19th century and much waving of the Confederate Battle Flag in the southland for decades, but the blacks were never returned to slavery and the Old South was never reborn.

       Actually the old South did rise again,the difference being the new plantation is the welfare state and it’s owners are once again Democrats.If you look at this new plantation in it’s whole we can see that now it covers the entire nation,who really won the Civil War?

         Democrats = the once and future party of slavery.
